South Tyrolean wines
& Alpine delicacies
The Paulser Hof is your culinary paradise
It’s a place rich in traditions. A popular gathering place for more than 60 years. Where visitors arrive as guests, but leave as friends! A cozy place where both locals and tourists have been coming together for generations to enjoy a cheerful atmosphere and pleasant company. And where they can sample some of the best vintages that the fine art of South Tyrolean wine-making has to offer!
Our dining room is steeped in tradition. It’s a place for friendly meetings and fine dining. Our wine cellar dates back to the 14th century, and was likely used by the Counts of Hocheppan to store their precious vintages. It’s four meters under the earth, and offers the ideal surroundings for many unforgettable hours. Besides affording a cozy atmosphere for enjoying select wines, it is also quite suitable as a venue for various different events, including exhibitions, wine presentations, and the charming South Tyrolean custom of “Törggelen” (hearty snacking) for groups of 25 persons or more (reservations necessary).
We offer a range of mouthwatering taste-treats! Here at the Paulser Hof, we don’t serve run-of-the-mill food, but rather creative compositions that are guaranteed to tickle your palate. Our kitchen is the home of exclusive Tyrolean cuisine. We take down-to-earth dishes and add a dash of Mediterranean creativity. Rustic treats like bacon dumplings, black polenta dumplings, the ever-popular “Schlutzkrapfen,” potato dishes, onion roast, meat dishes, and much, much more. Whenever possible, we prepare our dishes using farm-fresh products obtained locally – that’s because regionality and sustainability are important to us.
Although we are open practically the entire year, we always strive to keep our menu up to date with fresh, seasonal ingredients. That means that we regularly offer top-tier seasonal dishes and local delicacies.
Our game meats are a special highlight of our menu. Our manager is an enthusiastic hunter and is able to utilize her knowledge of hunting, game meats, and culinary science to prepare astonishingly delicious dishes. You thus have the opportunity to order a variety of authentic dishes featuring game meats to delight the palate.
In our comfortable restaurant, you can look forward not only to unique cuisine, but also an exclusive atmosphere. The Paulser Hof has seating for 160 guests and is thus the ideal location for weddings, company events, and family celebrations. This is the perfect venue for fine dining, enjoyment, and unforgettable celebrations.
What is fine dining without the appropriate wine to accompany it? The answer: Boring! That’s why our wine cellars offer a wide range of select South Tyrolean and Italian wines to enchant your palate and bring out the best in your meal! You can choose from among high-quality white wines, delicate rosés, and robust red wines – we can always provide the ideal pairing for every delectable dish on our menu.
As a wine connoisseur, Elke Schwarzer can assist you in making the right choice of wine. But as an attentive hostess, she will also dazzle you with her wit and charm! She combines competence with enthusiasm and wants your stay at the Paulser Hof to be a supremely memorable one.
